I can't say "happy Yule" to anyone without someone getting upset that I'm not saying something politically correct, like "merry Christmas". It's those damn Christian progressives, trying to stamp out our precious pagan tradition. They already destroyed Dies Natalis Solis Invicti, what more do they want? Is it not enough that they took away peoples' ability to celebrate the birth of Mithra on December 25? Now they make it about Jesus, who was born in summer or fall. What will they come for next? How much longer will I be able to wish people a happy Yule for without being killed on the spot under a new law the progressives will surely make? They've taken away enough of my religious freedom. I can no longer enjoy my constitutional right to own thralls to row my longboat or even sail to raid villages. No, I'm not crazy, I really am being oppressed. We must take a stand against the war on Yule.

    I have never heard of people getting angry about someone saying "Happy Yule" and claiming (falsely) that "Merry Christmas" is politically correct. I had no idea there was even a war going on. If I did, I would... no I still wouldn't be bothered to take sides.

    I knew christianity replaced christianity and that the pagan symbols were used to mask Christian holidays while not interfering with the pagan holidays 2000 years ago, but i never thought about it affecting its current followers this way. it's so weird that your post almost sounds fake, not that it is, it's just so unusual.

    But, to be fair, the pagans did oppress the Christians first. Pagans are just outnumbered now and it's unlikely this religion can be revived to what it was before. Hmmm... I'm starting to think conspiracies.

    Yes people get politically correct and why you can no longer say "Merry Christmas" you have to say "Happy Holidays".

    Wouldnt you love freedom of beliefs? Well, if most of the peoples want christmas, obviously christmas will be more talked about. That doesnt mean everyone is against whatever you celebrate. If people do insult you because of that, its a minority, and yes, they are arses. But do not generalize, not everyone is like that. Maybe you just live in a stupid country

    :O Hush about Mithra, God's child on earth through a virgin birth, born to take our sin, died, resurrected and finally taking his place in heaven. Say too much about this stuff and you'll make Christians paranoid that their entire religion was copied off someone else's.

    P.S. If anyone if offended by your seasons greetings, you could quote them the 1990 case between the public and a school board of Solon, Ohio which legally mandates that Christmas is not religious but merely traditional.

    But Merry Mithramas just doesn't have that christmasly (or is it mithramasly) ring to it. I say change the country back to deism which is what Thom Jefferson believed in before Pat Robinson was a gleam in his father's eye. And Ben Franklin... whooo boy! Who knows what he was besides being a playboy in Paris where he pursued the belles francois.

      I like the sound of that! Sounds like 'Merry Myth-ramas', which makes more sense and could make both sides happy (if certain Christians could admit that the Bible is a myth).
